< Psalms 122 >
1 [the] song of The ascents of David I rejoiced in [those who] said to me [the] house of Yahweh let us go.
[A Song of Ascents. By David.] I was glad when they said to me, "Let's go to the LORD's house."
2 Standing they were feet our in gates your O Jerusalem.
Our feet are standing within your gates, Jerusalem;
3 Jerusalem which was built like a city that was joined together to itself together.
Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is joined together;
4 Where there they went up tribes [the] tribes of Yahweh a testimony to Israel to give thanks to [the] name of Yahweh.
where the tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD, according to an ordinance for Israel, to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
5 For there - they sat thrones for judgment thrones of [the] house of David.
For there are set thrones for judgment, the thrones of David's house.
6 Ask for [the] peace of Jerusalem may they be at ease [those who] love you.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper.
7 May it be peace in rampart your ease in fortresses your.
Peace be within your walls, and prosperity within your palaces.
8 For [the] sake of brothers my and friends my I will speak please peace [be] in you.
For my brothers' and companions' sakes, I will now say, "Peace be within you."
9 For [the] sake of [the] house of Yahweh God our I will seek good of you.
For the sake of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.
